We’re coming out of public beta and launching Continuuity Reactor 2.0. Now, businesses and developers can build and deploy production Big Data apps using our platform. We added a collection of new features to make Continuuity Reactor 2.0 production-ready, including MapReduce Scheduling, High Availability, Resource Isolation and full REST API support. In addition, developers can now run an entire end-to-end application in Local, Sandbox, and Distributed Reactors with an easy to use, integrated web server.”
